At BlueGreen, we share a deep connection to both the Jersey Shore and the Gulf of Maine. Of course, the prospect of #offshore wind to transform the energy equation for both regions, and drive economic growth and development in the process is why this progress report is great news. https://flip.it/NT9M6l

Just another reason why our BlueGreen moniker is meeting the moment. Congratulations Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences How can we help from the (Sea) Garden State?
Big Boost for Algae-Based Innovation: Bigelow Laboratory and partners from across the state have secured a $7 million award from the National Science Foundation to build the Maine Algal Research Infrastructure and Accelerator. MARIA will catalyze scientific discovery, economic growth, and workforce development for Maine’s blue economy — and beyond. Read more about the promise of this exciting new initiative: https://ow.ly/gllV50TeqYO And to hear about the potential of microalgae in person, join us on Sept 24 for “Driving Biotech Innovation with Microalgae,” an event that we are cohosting with Gulf of Maine Research Institute.

Ferries and similar watercraft are an excellent use case for going #bluegreen with electric propulsion and solar charging. How can this beachhead in marine transportation accelerate around the world? https://flip.it/9W3lQu

Happy Labor Day. Given the critical role that #shipping plays in how the world works— and how important #port operations are in the sector, and for New Jersey— this story resonates with the BlueGreen team. Electrifying every aspect of how marine terminals run is an essential way to green one major facet of the shipping industry. For example, large ships could plug into the land-based grid to operate with fewer diesel emissions while docked. Greening port operations is a smart way to take action now to reduce the climate impact of a sector that is vital to global commerce, but a significant source of greenhouse gas emissions. https://lnkd.in/eDuydrpx

Adapting to climate change will be a growth industry that parallels the rise of sea level and increasing frequency and intensity of storms. Coastal communities will need the same kind of breakthrough thinking and technological innovation to manage these challenges as we are seeing in areas such as clean energy and more sustainable infrastructure, manufacturing and urban development. Here’s one example of the kind of fresh thinking needed to combat erosion along coastlines. https://lnkd.in/gp2Ua6Tb

At BlueGreen, we’ve been particularly interested in hybrid or compound approaches that combine #aquaculture and #offshore wind. We can also imagine the virtues of systems that might blend wind, wave, tidal and floating #solar in new configurations to generate energy through a #multiplex model. https://lnkd.in/eMkyRAHU https://lnkd.in/eMkyRAHU

Even more reason why we’re building #bluetech in the (Sea) Garden State.
Gov. Phil Murphy campaigned on the idea of recreating and reinvigorating an “innovation” economy in the state — an initiative he has pushed throughout his six years in office. The effort appears to be paying off. This week, PitchBook ranked New Jersey third in the country for venture capital investment in the first half of 2024 — another milestone climb in VC investment that had dropped dramatically before he took office. In the first six months of the year, New Jersey had $9.8 billion in VC investment (on 103 deals), a bit behind No. 2 New York ($12.6 billion) but well ahead of No. 4 Massachusetts ($6.9 billion). All three trailed No. 1 California ($40.4 billion), but that is expected. The four states were the only states in the country to top even $3 billion in investment for the first half of 2024.

Important event in September. Mark your calendars.
Join Ocean Visions and co-hosts Sabin Center for Climate Change Law at #ClimateWeekNYC as we explore the potential for marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR) to help mitigate, and ultimately reverse, dangerous climate change and meet Paris Agreement targets. Together with leaders in the field, we’ll explore recent advancements and key challenges that remain in proving or disproving the potential of mCDR pathways as a climate solution. A one-hour panel will be followed by 30 minutes of Q&A and select presentations by mCDR start-up companies. Panelists include: Moderator: Brad Ack, CEO, Ocean Visions · Jane Lubchenco (invited) | Deputy Director, White House Office of Science and Technology Policy · Arun Vignesh, Assistant Director for Global Partnerships, Office of the Prime Minister, Singapore · Kristin Ellis (invited) Partner, Lowercarbon Capital · Romany Webb, Deputy Director, Sabin Center for Climate Change Law Learn More & Register: https://lnkd.in/eTvJDy6f #carbonremoval #climatesolutions #oceanhealth DIVE DEEPER: Explore Ocean Visions’ Comprehensive Program to Prove or Disprove Marine Carbon Dioxide Removal Technologies by 2030: https://lnkd.in/grNy_h4f

#Tidal ocean power is the hydroelectric renewable energy source that needs to figure bigger in the mix of #bluetech frontiers. The ocean is a vast engine that converts solar energy into wind, wave and current. How do we tap the reservoir of rivers flowing in the ocean economically? Orbital Marine Power Ltd is one of many ventures trying to crack the code. Who else should we be tracking? https://lnkd.in/eAmDTUmV
The world's most powerful tidal turbine - but can our grid handle it?

With our focus on building businesses for the #blue economy in NJ, we’re excited to be part of how New Jersey will lead the charge in adapting to climate change. Mitigating the impact of extreme weather that is fast becoming the new normal will be the challenge of our lifetime.
Rutgers university researchers will receive $16 million to lead different projects with the goal of fortifying New Jersey's coast against climate change and extreme weather events. The funding will also help Rutgers develop the next generation of climate resilience experts by providing hands-on experience for its graduate and undergraduate students across these projects.
